Shows that are making the Olympic effort to draw your eyes away from Sochi:

“Pretty Little Liars” (Tuesday, 8 p.m., ABC Family): Even if you’re not a regular viewer of this series, the upcoming black-and-white film noir episode is worth checking out. For one, it gives the 20-something actresses an excuse to dress up in beautiful 1940s garb and to act a little closer to their real ages rather than the ridiculous premise that these grown women are still in high school. In the episode, Spencer’s (Troian Bellisario) drug habit has her hallucinating a solution to what to do about an alive-and-well Alison (Sasha Pieterse) and Aria’s (Lucy Hale) dangerous liaison.

“Rake” (Thursday, 9 p.m., Fox): You loved him as a vampire king on “True Blood,” cheered for him as a self-mutilating kidnapper on “American Horror Story: Coven,” so what’s next for Denis O’Hare? A cannibal, of course. Film director Sam Raimi (of the “Spider-Man” and “Evil Dead” series) directs this episode, in which Greg Kinnear’s likable Keegan takes the case of his nemesis mayor’s top economic adviser, who is accused of murdering and eating an accountant.

“Hart of Dixie” (Monday, 8 p.m., The CW): Zoe’s (Rachel Bilson) mom, played by guest star JoBeth Williams — the actress’ fourth appearance — makes a surprise visit for this series’ third-season winter finale. The Bluebell doc is none too happy to see her mom, who comes to town for Zoe’s birthday party, courtesy of Joel (Josh Cooke).

“Ripper Street” (Saturday, Feb. 22, 9 p.m., BBC America): This really excellent British detective series stars the dreamy Matthew Macfayden, who returns as Inspector Reid for a second season, and is joined once again by sidekicks Drake (Jerome Flynn of “Game of Thrones”) and Jackson (Adam Rothenberg). Since the bowler-hatted trio is rid of Jack the Ripper, the series title does beg the question: Now what? But picking up again in a grimy East London in 1890 just before the recession hit Great Britain ensures at least a crime or two should keep this gang busy.

“The Walking Dead” (Sunday, 9 p.m., AMC): The fourth-season winter premiere picks up right where we left the survivors — or what’s left of them — as Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and son Carl (Chandler Riggs) try to make it on their own against the zombiepocalypse.
